USA vs Oman Prediction & Betting Tips - International Friendlies
by Joseph King | in Football Predictions
The United States takes to the field for their second match in the last three days as they host Oman for this international friendly. This is the second of four friendly fixtures that the United States Men's National Team (USMNT) has scheduled as they build up to a 2024 schedule which includes hosting the Copa America. The United States is automatically qualified for the 2026 World Cup as one of the host nations. That means these friendly matches are crucial to build team cohesiveness and chemistry as they won’t be partaking in the CONCACAF qualification games. The Stars and Stripes defeated Uzbekistan 3-0 on Friday although the final scoreline made the game appear easier than it actually was. The United States scored early on but failed to create much after that and conceded a few big chances to Uzbekistan. Two stoppage time goals would pad the result for the United States in what was their first victory since their Gold Cup exit.
Oman, currently 73rd in the official FIFA rankings, will attempt to put forward a better performance than 74th-ranked Uzbekistan. The visitors are on an encouraging run of form with five matches unbeaten and four wins. Their most recent outing ended in a 2-1 win over Palestine in a friendly played on Wednesday. This is the final warm-up match that Oman will have as they prepare for the start of AFC World Cup qualifying in November. Dating back to 2022, Oman have really impressed with a run of only one defeat in their last 13 games. That defeat came in the final of the Gulf Cup in January of this year. During that 13 match run, the Reds have kept a clean sheet in seven of their appearances. They’ll likely come into this match with the aim of frustrating the United States which could result in a lower-scoring game.

Our USA vs Oman Prediction
The United States will have to come with an improved performance or they will likely struggle to break down this Oman side. The visitors have proven that they can be a compact unit and have racked up an impressive amount of clean sheets over the past year. USA manager Gregg Berhalter might opt to make a few changes to his side and could bring in the likes of Pepi and Aaronson. The 11th-ranked United States will have enough to get the win here but this looks like a game that could finish 1-0 or 2-0 for the hosts. Our USA vs Oman prediction is for under 2.5 goals.
